One of my favorite parts of being a tourist guide used to be sitting in Addo Elephant National Park and watching the elephants do whatever... Coming down to the water, eating, walking along, standing around, ripping a bush apart, little ones playing, big ones stamping out there authority, whatever... At one stage I used to go to Addo up to 5 or 6 times a week and I never got tired of seeing these huge animals. Pity I didn't have a digital camera in those days, otherwise I would have had tons of awesome pictures to post on here. I think its time to visit my pachyderm friends again.
Oh yes, the PE elephants, haven't been there in years.
ReplyDeleteI should go and visit them next time I am in the area.
What a great photo. Yes, digital cameras have certainly changed the world!! Diane
ReplyDeleteWONDERFUL!
ReplyDelete(too bad about all the lost photo opportunities...)
I SO loved the elephants. They each have such individual characteristics and appearances. Addo was such a delightful park, and so close to where you live. I'm surprised you're not there more often.
ReplyDeleteSuper pic of the elephant, Firefly. Gotta get out to Addo again soon
ReplyDeleteNice shot Firefly. I have been looking to get a new digital camera for my wife and I to take on vacations. We just returned from Puerto Rico a few weeks ago and realize that digital is the only way to go now. Getting hard to find a film developer nowadays.
ReplyDeleteKeep the shots coming.
